Took my wife to work a few weeks ago, typical 7AM rush hour traffic. Merged onto the freeway. Typical, ordinary merge. Plenty of space, moving at around 20 mph, turn signal on etc.
But apparently the mere idea of a car merging in front of this man is simply too much. I look in my rear view mirror and he's throwing his hands in the air, tail gating me etc.
He does some dramatic maneuver to get into the lane next to me and then cuts me off. I just kinda laugh it off, don't really care, not in the mood. I don't even bother flipping him off, nothing. Really don't care.
He ends up behind an 18 wheel flat bed rig....of course he's tailgating it. I end up in the lane next to him as the onramp is splitting between east and west.
I tell my wife, who didn't even notice the antics he was doing with us, "hey look at this moron, he was tailgating us because i merged in front of him, now he's tailgating an 18 wheel flatbed."
Right as we both look over to laugh, he has hands up in frustration, gesturing to the flatbed, in a single lane curved onramp, while he tailgates the guy.
Dude catches us looking and laughing as he's throwing his little hissy fit.
The look on his face was ****ing priceless. Like a mix of anger and embarrassment. IDK wtf is wrong with people, man. But laughing at people's anger and frustration has become my new favorite thing.
